Resources

Visit our North Carolina Room for printed, audiovisual, and online resources for
your local or family history research. Prepare to be impressed with the available
collections and the staff that can guide you through them.

As a Federal Depository for United States government documents, we provide access
to a wealth of reports and data. State and local government information is also
on file and ready for you to access at the library or at home. Visit the North Carolina
Room and meet with the experts.

The Nonprofit Resource Center offers research materials on a wide variety of topics
of interest to the nonprofit sector. This collection is housed on the second floor
of Central Library and includes a dedicated workstation with subscription access
to Foundation Directory Online.

A very special collection of photographs is housed at Central Library as a part
of the North Carolina Room. Most feature people, events, buildings, and street scenes
of Winston-Salem and surrounding areas, and they date back as far as the late 1800s.
